An extraordinary video has surfaced online of a resolute Messenger Owl showing the utmost attitude as it delivers a letter to its owner.
In the video we see the glaring, almost statuesque creature staring through the closed window of a house. The window is then opened and an arm reaches from off screen to retrieve the letter dangling in the steely eyed animal’s sharp beak. It’s at this point that the video helpfully reminds us that the owl is in fact alive with a caption that appears on screen.
The disembodied hand then reaches out and grasps the letter in an attempt to retrieve it from the fierce looking creature’s mouth but the determined owl steadfastly refuses to loosen its grip on the white envelope no matter how hard the person pulls and tugs at it.
Over and over again we see the hand yank at the letter but to no avail. It’s at this point that the man’s plan is revealed as we hear him tell the owl that it is ruining his “staging” by not letting go of the letter.
Unfortunately for the man, the owl cares little for his protestations and continues to hold on to the letter and even refuses to let go when a dead mouse and a fluffy toy is dangled in front of its wide eyes.
Watch the hilarious antics of this amazing animal for yourself.
